Andrea Arcangeli

@ Red Hat

Andrea Arcangeli joined Qumranet and then Red Hat in 2008 because of his interest in working on the KVM Virtualization Hypervisor, with a special interest in Virtual Machine Memory Management. Before joining Qumranet, he worked for SUSE for 9 years. He worked on many parts of the Linux Kernel, especially on the Virtual Memory subsystem. Andrea started working with Linux in his spare time shortly after first connecting to the internet back in 1996 while studying at University. He enjoys spending most of his time solving software problems and promoting the adoption of Linux, Free Software and Open Source software everywhere.

Talks

Andrea will explore recent advances in Memory Management related to the KVM Virtualization Hypervisor and the Kernel technologies that when properly combined creates the Container abstraction.
Andrea will provide a high level perspective of the most notable milestones in the long term evolution of the Linux Virtual Memory and Virtualization subsystems. In addition, Andrea will explore recent advances in Memory Management related to the KVM Virtualization Hypervisor and the Kernel technologies that when properly combined creates the Container abstraction. Virtualization and Containers are the Linux Kernel foundations leveraged by Kubernetes, OpenShift, oVirt and OpenStack and Andrea will explore some of the tradeoffs between the two.
